Running Out of Gas
My Testimony for Saturday morning. I was headed out the door late for work Friday Morning and when I started down the road my car started coughing and sputtering, and of course feeling illish I really didn't feel up to dealing with my car in the icy cold weather, you know the kind where you see your own breath. Well, it was fizzling out on me and I happen to remember that I didn't put gas in the car and I was running out of gas. I live a ways away from the gas station.
Well, I drove my spitting and sputtering
card down the road with it cutting out and managed to pull
in to the gas station. I got up to the pump and the car quit
entirely. I was completely out of gas. I filled my little
tiny tank and turned the key a few times because I had to
prime it a little and get gas back up through the lines and
varooooom I was up and going and off to work I went in my
nice warm cozy car that never coughed, sputtered, done any
cutting out after the fill up. God is so good. I reflected
on that a lot today just about the time I am running
out....God comes along and fills me up even if it is from my
own negligence for not getting fueled like I need to!
Good Morning. Melanie

P. S. Isn't this the same with our Spiritual life? We
sputter and cough and have a hard time to go on, starting to
doubt about our destiny. If we just let ourselves be filled
with God's Holy Spirit and feed from His Word, the going
would be going smoothly again.
